Senator Iyorchia Ayu, the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has indicated that he will not step down from his position and has emphasized that the requests for his resignation do not disturb him.

According to Anaedoonline.ng, Ayu’s resignation has reportedly been demanded by Nyesom Wike’s administration as a condition for peace and in support of the PDP’s Atiku Abubakar as the party’s presidential nominee.

Ayu referred to those attempting to have him removed as party chairman as children in an interview with BBC Hausa.

In addition, he added that those clamoring for his resignation would not be replacing him if there were another election because he was chosen based on the rules established by the main opposition party.

Ayu said: “I was elected to lead the PDP for a four-year term, I have not even spent one year. The election of Atiku as a presidential candidate has nothing to do with the position of national chairman. I won an election as prescribed by our party’s constitution.

“I did not commit any crime, I’m only bringing in positive reforms to the party, and honestly, I’m not bothered by the noise

“I know I’m working, I have not stolen any money, I have not committed any offence because of this. I don’t know what all that talk is about.”

Asked whether or not the yet-to-be resolved dispute with Governor Wike will affect the party in 2023, Ayu said: “We founded the PDP in Nigeria. So, some children/kids, who have no inkling about the struggle, cannot become a problem.

“When we started the PDP, we did not see these children/kids, they didn’t know why we founded this party. We will not allow an individual to come and destroy our party.”
